(And just a reminder... Trump has previously taken the position that he considers Infowars to be a more reliable news source than the "Fake News" mainstream media. The guy who is president of the country. That guy. )

President "FAKE NEWS!" just tweet ranted about another nation violating a treaty based on a false news report that used old recycled footage of a missile launch he didn't bother to check with his intel agencies, just saw on the internet/fox news and decided he was off and running.

The US has been one long running bad joke to the rest of the world for the last 7 months and it isn't getting better. Because Trump *doesn't learn*. Ever.
